Wake Orthodontics & Pediatric Dentistry has announced the expansion of its Smithfield practice to include pediatric dental services, available every Wednesday. This new offering will allow families to access both pediatric dentistry and orthodontic care in one location.
Dr. Mac Collie, who has been providing orthodontic services in Smithfield for 30 years, is excited about this development. He will be joined by Dr. Travis Hicks, who expressed enthusiasm for the opportunity to deliver quality dental care to local children. “I am excited about the opportunity to provide exceptional dental care to the children of Smithfield,” Hicks stated.
The goal of Collie and Hicks is to change children’s perceptions of dental visits from fear to enjoyment. They emphasize the importance of patient education, aiming to instill healthy oral habits in young patients that will last a lifetime. “Creating an environment where children feel safe and enjoy coming to the dentist is extremely important,” Hicks added. He looks forward to establishing positive relationships with his patients and their families.
This initiative reflects a commitment to fostering a welcoming atmosphere for children, ensuring that their experiences at the dentist are both fun and educational.
